Good acoustic song from Green Day. For most of the song you don't
play the high E string at all. Just mute it with your pinky.
So the chords for the first 2 verses and first 2 choruses are
more like this: G (32003x)
C9 (x3203x)
D (xx023x)
Em (02200x)
C (x3201x)
Then at the end of the second chorus he starts strumming the whole
chords.

Remember with all these tabs that they don't have to be totally
accurate. If you hit some extra strings along the way it doesn't
really matter, it still sounds good.
G C9 D
Another turning point, a fork stuck in the road
G C9 D
Time grabs you by the wrist, directs you where to go
Em D C G
So make the best of this test and don't ask why
Em D C G
It's not a question but a lesson learned in time
